On this day in 2010 , Noel Whelan came on as Sub for Darlo at the arena.
The rest is history !
If there was a funnier Arena moment (barring Gazza in the fundraising game & possibly Chris brass ) then I can’t remember it .

Couldn't have been much more than 10mins, maybe less.

NOEL WHELAN was said to be devastated after his four month wait for first team football lasted less than two minutes of Tuesday’s defeat to Northampton Town.
